On Saturday, the General Directorate of Meteorology forecasts persistently high temperatures across southeastern Morocco, as well as in the eastern and southern regions of the desert. Relatively warm conditions are also expected in the Saïs region, the Gharb, and the plains west of the Atlas Mountains, alongside southern parts of the eastern region and interior zones of Souss.
Weather Patterns and Precipitation
Forecasters predict the development of cumulonimbus clouds, accompanied by isolated showers or thunderstorms, especially in the Grand and Medium Atlas, the eastern region, and southeastern areas. This could potentially extend to the Saïs, the phosphates plateaus, and northern parts of the southern regions. Additionally, sporadic rain and thunderstorms are likely in the Rif and Mediterranean coast overnight.
Fog and Wind Conditions
The forecast also indicates the formation of low clouds and fog over the Atlantic plains and the Mediterranean coast. Gusty winds are expected, particularly in the Tangier area, southeastern Morocco, and desert regions, which may stir up local dust.
Implications and Precautions
As the heat persists, local populations and travelers in these regions are advised to take necessary precautions. The changing weather patterns underscore the importance of vigilance, especially with the potential for thunderstorms that could disrupt daily activities and travel plans.
